Dear Editor,
First, he wrote letters – three in total – to Dr Keith Rowley, then this latest visit to the United States Ambassador to Guyana. In both instances, he lodges a bitter complaint about Dr Irfaan Alli Government’s manner of governance in this country as well as a request for the American Ambassador to air the views of the Opposition to her home Government.
This marks a stark contrast from the belligerent and obnoxious Coalition that we have grown accustomed to these last five years five months on here in Guyana. Maybe they have changed their ways, but have they? We shall explore this aspect of that party as we go further into our discussion. But before we get into an in-depth look into this topic, I would like to ask the PNC to clear up a few glaring anomalies.
Firstly, Joseph Harmon must acknowledge the PPP/C as the elected Government of Guyana. Up until this point, he has refused to give credence to this fact. I guess he is still griping from the aftermath of a defeat at the polls and that disgraceful attempt with that rigging stunt of theirs. These are the facts that he must consider before we can move safely into the future.
Both GECOM and the International Community have closed that chapter of our democratic process, and have declared the PPP/C winners of the March 2020 Elections, so there is no point harping on that, it is high time for us to move on.
Lastly, it is a pathetic display, to say the least, that Harmon and Khemraj Ramjattan should approach the USA Ambassador on any matter of governance, because Mrs Sarah-Ann Lynch was present at the Ashmin Building when the brazen rigging attempt was being carried out. There was nothing left to the imagination as the Coalition led that brazen assault on our democratic process.
Further to it is the fact that it was Mrs Lynch herself who was subjected to all the expletives and cuss-outs from PNC supporters. The very same ambassador was refused entry by the PNC when the recount started, so isn’t it ironic that Mr Harmon should be approaching Mrs Lynch to act on his behalf?
But this is the barefaced nature of the PNC, a party that have no shame. How far he can go with that kind of behaviour is left to be seen. But what I am well aware of is that the USA as well as the rest of the world are paying strict attention to the actions of the PNC, to see if they can measure up to the bar of behaving as a civilised Opposition.
Respectfully,
Neil Adams
